Default Laura, did she peak to soon? What week was her best performance?

I wonder if Laura peeked to soon, take the poll and lets work out what went wrong.

I knew on week 1 that she may have peaked too early, which is a shame.

Laura that week is probably in my top ever X factor performances.

The first week she was the best, IMO. It said she top the voting too. Since then I still think she has been one of the best.

IMO, fallin' was her best. The last two, though still better than some acts, were least memorable. I think that laura 's popularity did diminish over the last few weeks, for whatever reason. But she wasn't helped by simon cowell either, saying she needed to be 'quirky' like diana. That undermined her, and the piano routine last week didn't work for her. But she still shouldn't have finished EIGHTH!!!

All her performances were great. I dont think she peaked I think she still had a lot more to offer.

Like G said, all her performances were great but the one that sticks in my mind was her first show when she did Fallin

God Bless the Child was probably her most surprising performance.

Whilst she gave good performances every week,the first week was her best in my view and last week's was certainly her weakest.

Fallin' was her best, I don't think she peaked at all, but I think she set herself an impossibly high standard after the week 1 performance, so while the rest of her performances were ranging from OK-very good, none were quite as great as Fallin' =/= peaking too soon.
